PLACEMENT OF SPEAKERS
All stereo information is heard from the Satellite speakers. The Subwoofer
contains no stereo information and sound is non-directional. As a result, the
Subwoofer does not necessarily have to be placed in any particular
relationship to the Satellites. Placing the Subwoofer on the floor close to the
wall or corner of a room provides maximum bass efficiency.
WARNING: The Subwoofer is not magnetically shielded. The Subwoofer
should NOT be placed near video display devices such as a TV or computer
monitor. The Subwoofer should NOT be placed near computer hard drives.
Position the Subwoofer at least 2 feet (.6 m) away from computer hard drives,
or any other media that uses magnetic encoding.
The Satellite speakers can be placed close to a video display (TV, computer
monitor) without distorting the video image. The Front Satellites can be close
to the monitor or stretched out as far as the speaker cords allow. The
placement depends on where the listener sits. The Rear speakers can be
placed slightly behind the listener. Usually best stereo effect is obtained by
placing speakers as far apart as their wiring allows. Front Satellite and Rear
speakers are usually placed at ear level or slightly above.
Sound effects may vary depending on how the recordings are made.
Therefore, it is not unusual to rearrange the speakers from time to time until
the listener finds which arrangement gives the best results.
How To Enhance Presentations With Dialogue
The 4100 output jack (CONNECTIONS, Stereo x2 setup, Step 4) is
connected to a computer sound card. A CD player or other audio source can
be plugged into the unused Aux (Auxiliary) Input. Mixing of the computer
audio output with another audio source can be accomplished by using the
volume control or On/Off switch on the second audio source. A typical
example may be as follows:
A lecturer may want to interject dialogue into a multimedia presentation. If
the lecturer has a wireless FM microphone system the output of the
microphone receiver can be connected to the unused Input on
the 4100. When the lecturer wishes to make a comment, he either turns on
the microphone switch to speak or he can raise or lower the microphone
volume control to mix his voice with the computer audio program. Any other
audio device can be used in the same manner.
Note: Microphone location in relation to the speakers is important. Position
the microphone so that the speakers are located between the microphone
and the audience, or so that the microphone is behind the speakers. If the
microphone is placed in front of the speakers, feedback will result.
Other Uses For The Auxiliary Input
You may elect to hook up your Stereo system or Stereo TV to the Aux
(Auxiliary) Input so that your speakers may be used for these devices when
your primary audio device is not in use. You can also connect your modem
audio-out to the second Input.
